Ebay Inc. (San Jose, Calif.) announced plans to expand a pilot focused on making peer-to-peer consignment simpler, reports Women’s Wear Daily.
The online resale site tested a drop-off program in partnership with FedEx Office (Plano, Texas) in Atlanta and Los Angeles. The program allowed sellers to drop off items at FedEx Office locations. From there, products were be shipped to eBay’s Valet processing centers where the items would be listed, sold, and then shipped to buyers.
The program’s success, along with projected increases in the resale market have led to eBay’s announcement that the program will be rolling out to 1600 FedEx Office locations across the country.
